3.1. Users (Configured User Accounts)
After creating a Savant Pro 8 App User account in the existing Savant Pro system, the new user is automatically synced to the Pro Remote (made
available). In addition, any other users who were granted access through the Savant Pro 8 App will sync to the Pro Remote as well.

HELPFUL INFORMATION - Savant User (Default User Profile)
If the Savant Pro system that the Remote is being added to does not have an iOS® or Android® device with the Savant Pro 8 App and a Savant Pro
8 App account created, the user available on the Pro Remote defaults to user: Savant User. The Savant User on the Remote has limited access.
Basic functions such as adjusting the functions in the SETTINGS screen and controlling the available Services in the SERVICES screen are enabled.
Functions that require the Remote to sync with the Savant Pro 8 App are not enabled. For example:
−Favorites that exist in the cloud are not available.
−A Scene can be captured using the Remote but additional functions such as deleting or modifying that scene cannot be done since the Savant
Pro 8 App is where that functionality exists.
Since the Remote has such limited access and functionality, the Remote should be synced to a User Account on the Savant Cloud Server. To do
this, download and install the Savant App to an iOS or Android® device and create an account. Once the account created is associated with the
Savant Pro system (Savant Host) the Remote will automatically sync to the Savant Pro 8 App. From there a User can be selected.
For information on Downloading, Installing, and Creating a User for the Savant Pro 8 App, refer to the Savant Pro 8 App User Guide (009-1399-xx)
on the Savant Community.

5. SCENES
Scenes make it easy to control one or more Services using a button press or tap. The Pro Remote can capture a Scene using the current states and levels
of the devices in the Savant Pro system. Once the Scene is created, it will be available in the SCENE screen. Before describing how to create a Scene, it is
important to know the following:
−Any Scenes captured on the Remote are automatically synced to the Savant Pro 8 App.
−Scenes captured in a user account are not available to other user accounts.
−Deleting or modifying a Scene is set in the Savant Pro 8 App only. Once completed, the modifications are synced back to the Pro Remote.
−The Remote will only capture lighting and Media Services when building a Scene. All other Services that are not Media and Lighting related need to
be set up in a Scene on the Savant Pro 8 App.
−Timers and Fade adjustments can't be set up in the Remote. Those functions are set up in the Savant Pro 8 App and automatically synced back to the
Remote.
5.1. Adjust Services to the Desired Levels
The first step would be to set the levels and states of the Services (ceiling light, corner lamp in this example) to the desired levels. This can be
completed using the Savant App, Savant Pro Remote, or manually adjusting each device. Any method that gets the Services to their desired levels
and states is supported.
5.2. Capture the Current Service Levels
Once the levels and states of the Services are set, the current settings can be captured.
1. From the SCENES screen, tap +icon to start the CAPTURE process (See image below).

2. In the CAPTURE screen that opens, the Remote displays the captured Services. The captured Services are the active (switched on) Services in
the room where the Remote is set up.
−If the captured Services in the checked room are the only Services being added to the Scene, skip this step and move to step 3 below.
−If the captured Services will need to be modified or if any additional Services from other rooms need to be added, refer to the information
below in this step.
A. The Remote captures a snapshot of the following:
−All active (switched on) Services from the room that the
Remote is set up in. These Services are automatically added to
the Scene being created.
−Services from other rooms that can be captured on the
Remote. These Services are NOT selected.
B. To expand any room, tap the text for that room. In the image to the
left, the Family Room has been expanded to display all the
captured Services.
C. Any of the captured Services can be deselected by tapping that
Service in the list. In this example, the CABLE BOX FR (family
room) has been deselected and the two Lighting Services are left
selected.
D. To select or deselect a room with all of its Services, tap the room
icon to add a check mark. This adds the room with all its Services
to the Scene. For example, tapping the Kitchen icon in the image to
the left adds the Kitchen with all its Services to the Scene.
E. If adding a room to the Scene, the room can be expanded and each
of the Services displayed in that room can be removed from the
Scene.
3. Select the NEXT button when all Services are added or removed.
4. In the SCENE NAME screen that opens, select a name for the Scene from the list of default scene names available.
5. Select SAVE to save the Scene. The Scene is now saved and is available in the SCENES screen of the Remote. In addition, a default image will
be added. The images are the same images available in the Savant Pro 8 App.
6. Test your newly created Scene and verify it works as intended. Modifications to the Scene will now need to be modified using the Savant Pro 8
App. All modifications made in the App will be synced back to the Remote.
